Kick off the holiday season with some eco-decorating tips along with a generous dose of your favorite Bigelow Tea… a win-win combination that we like to call SustainabiliTea! Why not text your friends and challenge each one to come up with an earth friendly decorating idea? Make it a party! Cook up a spread (check out these recipes) along with some Bigelow Tea—like “Constant Comment”®— and deck the halls!
Here are some of our favorite ways to be green this season (other than drinking green tea of course):
- Living Tree – Consider buying a live potted fir or Norfolk Pine tree and then, after the holidays, either plant it in your yard or give it to someone who will appreciate its awesomeness.
- Rosemary, Pine Cones and Cinnamon – Forget the fir-scented candle. Fill the house with the herbal and spicy scents of fresh rosemary and cinnamon sticks, and then add some bunches of real pine cones to the mix!
- Three letters: L-E-D. LED lights are bright and use up far less energy than all the rest.
- Get Crafty –What to do with all those leftover Bigelow Tea wrappers? Break out the glue and let your imagination run wild. If you’re stumped, check out this Bigelow Tea wrapper wreath. (We know you want it.) And hey, Bigelow employees know how to get crafty too…what do you think of this handmade ornament that was made during Bigelow’s Earth Week in November?
This is only the beginning … we know you have some tips too, so share with us on Instagram and tag your images with #bigelow so we can check them out. (And hey, while you are there, follow us too!!)
Happy Holidays!
